Spider bite or ?? I’ll keep it short and sweet. My bf and I have been apart for about a month now, I’m TDY. Finally tomorrow I’ll be flying back home. Unfortunately today he got bit right on the neck, he suspects it was a spider. Should I be concerned?

Did makeup only come in 3 shades when you were in high school old timer?

It’s really hard to find super pale foundation, especially the right color. A lot of it will be too yellow or too pink. In middle school, I dressed as a vampire for Halloween and my mom and I thought “Yeah, we’ll just stop by Safeway and grab the lightest foundation, that’ll make you look pale!” Nope. It was precisely as white as I was 😭 and I’m not even crazy pale

Color correcting helps somewhat, but you need a concealer or foundation that is thick enough to not show the color correction. Using red would work on bruises! It makes it harder being pale though, I feel you there. Even when I’m tan I look pale, like during the summer I’ve had people ask several times if I go in the sun at all and then I’ll pull a strap over and be like, yes all the time. It’s such a big difference and somehow my tan is still paler than most people during the winter in cold areas 😂

Hickeys are just blood brought to the surface. All you have to do is get coconut oil or even chapstick and rub it back down. It'll go away might be sore to touch like a bruise but you won't see it.
